    For sure, Tokyo and Hong Kong are incredibly walkable cities but not at all accessible. Though maybe it's gotten a bit better in the last decade or so.

    A disability activist in Tokyo used to document how it was nearly impossible to use basic public transportation in a wheelchair: no ramps onto buses or subways, no elevators, scary big gaps between the platform and subway car that his wheel could get stuck or fall in, et cetera.
